Chapter 1060 Since we're already here, we can't leave empty-handed.
Even seeing the Crown Prince of Dongwei's unfriendly tone, Jiang Ciche still shook his head, "This official is truly powerless!"
Crown Prince Dongwei curled his lip and looked at Jiang Ciche with disdain, "As I just said, the Second Grand Secretary must obey me!"
"Has Your Excellency forgotten this statement rather quickly?"
"What exactly does His Highness the Crown Prince mean by that?"
Jiang Ciche panicked even more!
He himself was plotting with His Highness Prince Yi to usurp the throne and had colluded with the Eastern Wei Kingdom. As far as the Eastern Wei Kingdom was concerned, whether the plot succeeded or failed was irrelevant.
If things don't work out, I can just go back to China and let it go.
But he himself couldn't live without Jingyue.
If the Emperor were to find out what Prince Yi and I had done, it would be a crime that would result in the confiscation of our property and the extermination of our entire clan!
Just as Jiang Ciche was panicking, he heard the short, stout Crown Prince strike down with another heavy blow, hitting Jiang Ciche right in the heart!
"This Crown Prince might as well tell the Second Grand Secretary—"
To preserve his family's bloodline, the Second Grand Secretary had previously sent several of his sons away from the capital.
These gentlemen... are currently under the protection of our East Venezuelan diplomatic mission; they are our guests!
They are...very safe...extremely safe!
"As long as the Vice Minister is willing to help our Eastern Wei Kingdom achieve this, they will definitely be safe!"
"what?
You guys…you guys…”
Jiang Ciche's eyes widened as he pointed at the short, stout Crown Prince, his lips and fingers trembling, his whole body shaking!
They were sent away from the capital to protect those few descendants, but they never expected that they would fall into the hands of the Eastern Wei people!
Now, not only do I have to fear that the Emperor will find out about my treasonous crime, but I also have to fear that my children and grandchildren, who have fallen into the hands of the Eastern Wei people, will meet with misfortune!
Now it is clear that if he goes against the wishes of the people of East Venezuela, the lives of his descendants will be in grave danger!
Jiang Ciche's legs went weak, and he sat down on the ground with a thud!
Seeing Jiang Ciche's flustered and helpless state, the short and stout Crown Prince had a satisfied look on his face.
"Actually... Your Excellency need not worry about the safety of your sons."
They are... VIPs in our area, and will be treated with special care!
As long as the Vice Minister focuses on how to fulfill the Crown Prince's wishes, there's nothing else to worry about!
Furthermore, the Vice Minister will also benefit from accomplishing this!
The Crown Prince has not yet had a chance to inform the Second Grand Secretary... It won't be long before the position of Grand Secretary of the Jingyue Kingdom becomes vacant!
At that time, we will help the Second Grand Secretary ascend to the position of Grand Secretary!
Does the Second Grand Secretary not want to become the Grand Secretary?
In addition, as the Vice Minister just mentioned, his granddaughter is in love with Prince Yu. This matter is easily resolved!
If the Second Grand Secretary can send my Eastern Wei Kingdom's Silver Princess to Prince Yu's residence, then our cooperation will be complete, the Second Grand Secretary will become the Grand Secretary, and the Grand Secretary's granddaughter will become Prince Yu's consort...
This is a wonderful thing, Your Excellency... no, Your Excellency the Grand Secretary!
Why wouldn't the Grand Secretary be happy to do that?
Seeing and hearing all this from the rooftop, Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu felt a surge of anger welling up inside them!
What a beast, East Venezuela...
The two exchanged a glance... This Eastern Venezuela is truly extraordinary insidious and vicious!
Even the most venomous snakes and scorpions could not outdo the beasts of East Venezuela!
There will be no true peace in the world until the beasts of East Venezuela are eradicated!
Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu then looked down at the study.
First coercion, then enticement. Faced with the coercion and enticement from Dongwei, it's obvious what Jiang Ciche will do!
Jiang Ciche neither nodded in agreement nor shook his head in refusal.
If you didn't refuse, then you accepted.
The short, stout crown prince wore an expression of "I knew it," and glanced contemptuously at Jiang Ciche, who was sitting on the ground with his head drooping.
Immediately, the short, stout Crown Prince withdrew his hands from the desk, straightened up, and said, "Prime Minister, in the next few days, there will be a good show every day in Jingyue Capital. Don't be too surprised or taken aback!"
Jiang Ciche raised his head and looked blankly at the short, stout crown prince.
The short, stout crown prince refused to continue!
It turned around and walked towards the door.
"This Crown Prince is going back!"
Whether or not you should carry out the task assigned to you, and how you should do it, is entirely up to the future Grand Secretary!
The short, stout crown prince had just reached the door when he heard Jiang Ciche's weak voice behind him...
"Your Highness, the heir of my Jiang family..."
The short, stout crown prince only glanced back at Jiang Ciche, his thick lips twitched to one side, he snorted lightly, and then opened the door and walked out.
Jiang Ciche, who was sitting on the ground, slumped back against the wall, feeling utterly powerless, and remained motionless for a long time.
Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu lay on the roof, watching the short, stout crown prince leave the courtyard with his entourage.
The two were too lazy to continue looking at the dejected Jiang Ciche.
Xiao Jingyu picked up Leng Rongyue, gently landed on the ground, and then jumped over the courtyard wall.
Reaching the corner, I looked towards the three departing figures...
They saw that the short, stout crown prince was being led by a servant.
Sure enough, there were still people in the Auxiliary Office who had connections with the beasts from the Eastern Committee!
Seeing that the man, leading the short, stout crown prince and his entourage, had disappeared around the corner of the house, Xiao Jingyu whispered to Leng Rongyue, "Yue'er, let's go too!"
As he spoke, Xiao Jingyu was about to grab Leng Rongyue and leap into the air.
"and many more!"
Leng Rongyue suddenly reached out and stopped Xiao Jingyu.
Xiao Jingyu looked at Leng Rongyue with a puzzled expression.
Leng Rongyue looked around, a sly smile appearing on her face.
"We've already come all this way, we can't just leave empty-handed!"
This Jiang Ciche is no good. He associates with Prince Yi, so he must be quite fond of embezzling money on a regular basis.
Let's take a stroll around the Auxiliary Palace this time. If we can find something, it will be good to replenish the national treasury of our Jingyue Kingdom!
"Your Highness, what do you say?"
Leng Rongyue blinked her big eyes at Xiao Jingyu.
Xiao Jingyu… “Uh… okay! I’ll do whatever Yue’er says!”
